Depending on a home’s layout, the floors in adjoining rooms are sometimes at different levels. The difference can occur by design, due to remodeling, or differences in the flooring materials used in each room. Sometimes, the difference in floor levels requires one or more steps or a ramp between the floors. The differences between floors are often an inch or less and require floor transition trim to bridge the difference between levels.

When these transitions occur, you have several options for making the transition.

However, the best approach often depends on the difference in height between the two levels. For instance, if there is no or minimal difference between a plank floor in one room and a tile floor in another, a T-mold transition piece may be your best option. T-mold pieces are designed to bridge different flooring materials with the stick of the T slotting between the two floor types.

Threshold molding can also be effective when transitioning between a floor and a door wall, for instance, but it is less effective when the difference between the floors is more than ½ to ¾ inches. Reducer molding is most effective in those cases since it handles more significant differences in floor levels while allowing for a smooth transition for those walking or stepping between the rooms.
